All these middle managers are complaining about founder-mode espousing micromanagement.
Yet, when given the freedom, these middle-managers themselves abuse it to micromanage their own reports via measures for stack ranking, butts on seats, # of commits, or other such BS proxy metrics.
Founder mode encourages that. It eliminates autonomous product teams not people managers. Autonomous product teams specifically align on metrics that matter.
